Awww. This podcast just affirmed my decision this year that less is more. With a traveling husband I started to get very overwhelmed thinking about the holidays. Like tears guys. I’ve got to let go of the perfectionism and the mass amount of activities and traditions. What are you giving up this year?

I know I’m giving up wrapping cute gifts with matching bows( just kidding I never did that😂gift wrapping is not my talent) but I’m not going to stress about it this year.

I will also be allowing my kids to pick one xmas activity per week that they want to do. I did this for October and I felt like we all got what we wanted. They got the fun and I didn’t get worked up over our schedule.💚💙

🥃to the endless asking of how many more days till Christmas questions🎄

Sometimes we need a little help to simplify. I hate cooking. I’m too much of a multi tasker to be patient and let things cook. I burn stuff. I forget ingredients. I eyeball measurements and things don’t taste right. I need recipes to feed my family!! I’m hoping this helps cut back on the grocery bill and helps me prep each week. 🙏🏻hope it’s a good one!

First grade. Wow. My kind hearted, friendly boy. The one who says hi to everyone and told his mom she “ could go now”😂😭
